The next royal wedding is just days away, with the next set of nuptials linked to Princess Catherine. Lady Marina Windsor is due to tie the knot with fiancé Nico Macauley on Saturday, June 20.
It is the same church where Princess Catherine’s socialite sister, Pippa Middleton, married James Matthews in May, 2017.
Englefield Estate is currently occupied by Zoe and Richard Benyon, Lord Benyon of Englefield, who was Tory MP for Newbury between 2005 and 2019. He now serves as the Lord Chamberlain of the Royal Household.
Lady Marina made her engagement public in a post on Instagram on June 8 in which she wrote: “Very happy!”.
The post showed the royal and her fiancé with their arms around each other and Lady Marina holding up her hand to show her engagement ring.
In response, her brother, Lord Downpatrick, joked: “So the hazing begins”. Her sister, Lady Amelia Windsor, simply wrote: “Yippeeee!”
June 8 was a significant date for the announcement as this is the same date as the wedding anniversary of Lady Marina’s grandparents, the Duke and Duchess of Kent.
The Duke of Kent is a first cousin of the late Queen Elizabeth II. Lady Marina’s parents are George and Sylvana Windsor, Earl and Countess of St Andrews.
It is not known which royals will attend Saturday’s wedding, but royal fans will likely keep a close eye out to see who joins the celebrations.
King Charles III and Queen Camilla were among the senior members of the royal family who attended Peter Phillips’s wedding.
Phillips, 48, is the late Queen’s eldest grandson and William and Prince Harry’s first cousin. He split from his first wife, Autumn Kelly, with whom he has two children. His engagement to Harriet Sperling was announced last year.
